UKS2 – Class 8, 9 & 10 – Cross-curricular day

It was a busy day yesterday during our cross-curricular day. Class 8 had their trip to Golden Acre Park. Travelling in two groups via the minibus, the children enjoyed a day of birdwatching and investigation. Attempting to spy local species of birds, they took inspiration from their trip that will help them create their very own bird boxes.

Class 9 and 10 remained at school and completed a series of activities. In geography, the children were developing their knowledge of the UK, particularly the location of key cities within the 4 countries. After that, they took to the field to practice using their 8 point compass skills. Navigating with their partners. In PSHE, the children were exploring growth and ‘Growing together’. We discussed emotions and how they have developed over time, and set some goals for future growth they hope to see within themselves. Finally, in Forest School: Class 9 completed their prototyping of their birdhouses, whilst Class 10 took to the garden to completed some tool work practice and den building.
